I don't think so. There is a country where the enforcers of copyright have come to an "agreement" with pirates. In exchange for agreeing to hand over some of the income, the copies are now legitimate. Proper serials numbers, contact addresses and emails on the packets. My copy of PS7? �4. The exchange rate is shifting too fast for me to give a dollar figure. I understand there are development costs but production of software is a virtually no-cost operation. If the retail price was more reasonable, many more people would buy it and the piracy market would collapse. As the producers have decided to make a deal where I buy mine, I will continue to combine holidays with software purchases. mike
